For what it's worth. Vintage racers use WW all the time with good, measurable
results. The problem with it is that over time, it will find it's way out in
the form of little seeps and leaks anywhere it can. That includes head gasket
joints, coolant hoses and T-stat housings. Let's face it, if your Dak really
needs WW, you have a problem that needs to be addressed properly. WW is a
bandaid in street applications and should not be necessary. BTW, most of the
vintage racers that run it are running British cars which are famous for
overheating!
